Sarah Palin on the war in Iraq:

“pray for our military men and women, who are striving for what is right for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God, that’s what we have to make sure we’re praying for. There is a plan, and that plan is God’s plan.”

This lady completely puzzles me. After reading the first interview with her on the NYT, I just don't get what the McCain camp is thinking. I feel like there are so many contradictions with the way they're campaigning and the things that are coming out of their mouth.

...she acknowledged, she had not met any foreign leaders, though she said — in an apparent veiled reference to Mr. Biden — “We’ve got to remember what the desire is in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual and somebody’s big fat résumé that maybe shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they’ve had opportunities to meet heads of state.”

Like Mr. Biden, or say... Mr. McCain. I know all this is nitpicky stuff, doesn't really reflect much on their policies or how McCain is going to run the country, but I'm still bothered. Palin's pick seems entirely puzzling, granted the VP's job is not to be the President, but to crap on Obama for being the "biggest celebrity in the world", McCain picked the next biggest celebrity in the world. To say that experience is important, then to pick someone who seeming lack much of the experience to be perhaps the future president also seems rather hypocritical. I mean out of all the people in the republican party, this pick just seems like a total disrespect to the American people.
